“See Germany in Helen”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 26, 2012 NEW

The details of this is outstanding. A husband and wife did all the things you would see in Germany. The Octoberfest, the Alps, people walking in the towns. There is a Hot Air Baloon, trains, and lots of other sites. Well worth the cost. More

“Great fun for kids.”

The Kingdom is listed in 1000 places to see in the U.S. before you die. Well deserved. Run by a naturalized German who personalizes your visit and tour of a "recreated" Germany. Fantastic 50 X 20 ft display. A must see in Helen. More
